[jdk11u-dev] RFR: 8210962: Deprecate jdk-variant

Thu Sep 22 10:09:52 UTC 2022

Backports JDK-8210962 completely as parts of it have already been introduced via the backport of https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8239708 with this commit: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk11u-dev/commit/75b3e45fe9d16a8e29f4fd51f93e01acc9436562#diff-9cc5f1086e5a06c7e88857b7d319eb938a76d4fb28905cb3dda3bb7493e809a7

An alternative, if we refrain from backporting this change would be to also back out the change in basic.m4.

The backport isn't clean because the change to basics.m4/basic.m4 is already present.
